Question
Salafis say that wiping the face after dua is bid'ah and baseless. Is this correct?
Answer
Salafis are juhala. If they had sound knowledge they would not speak bunkum. Imaam Bukhaari (Rahmatullah alayh) narrated from Hadhrat Ibn Umar (Radhiyallahu anhu) the Sunnah of wiping the face after dua. Hadhrat Umar (Radhiyallahu anhu) also narrated that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) would wipe his face after Dua. This is a fourteen century Sunnah which is also stated by the Fuqaha.
